Pond Boss Forums POND CONSTRUCTION Selecting a site NRCS/SCS assistance in NC with pond design???

Eddie, one can manage BG & LMB in a pond notably smaller than 1 acre in size. If you are pursuing trophy LMB, the number that a small pond can support is going to also be small. If you are after more of a balanced pond or want large BG, ponds down to at least 1/4 acre can produce nice fishing with decent catch rates IMHO.
